New Found Glory survived the post-blink-182 purge that has left bands like Fenix TX and Sum41 in the dust and has proven you can’t keep a good band down.

The landscape has changed since 2001: the crowds are getting younger and the term “mall punk” was never so appropriate. While pretty-boy pop rock and squeaky-clean emo are the current trends, New Found Glory has stuck to its pop-punk guns. A gun loaded with guilty pleasure pop accented with rougher edges, which are equal parts Green Day and Gorilla Biscuits

Its aptly titled, Epitaph Records’ debut, Not Without a Fight, is full of those catchy choruses and gang vocals that fans have come to love since the band’s humble beginning in South Florida. The album is a return to form for the band who incorporated indie-rock into its Geffen records’ swan song, Coming Home, and last year’s melodic hard-core Tip of the Iceberg EP.

New Found Glory is clearly a rejuvenated band; possibly jaded by the politics of being on a major label, years of being lumped into the same category as the likes of Simple Plan and the drama of guitarist Chad Gilbert’s well-publicized divorce with Eisley’s Sherri DuPree. Not Without a Fight is backed by a clever mixed-martial arts fighting campaign, a tongue in cheek approach to a band that has never stopped fighting for what they believe.

The “Not Without A Fight Tour” makes a stop in town at 7:30 tonight at Warehouse Live. Bayside, Set Your Goals and Shai Hulud will open.
